By Duncan Wallace
Arthur’s Return is a literary coming-of-age adventure that follows a young man stepping beyond the familiar landscapes of northern Britain to explore the unpredictable streets and stories of continental Europe. Fueled by curiosity and a desire to escape the ordinary, Arthur's journey leads him into a patchwork of strange encounters, internal trials, and moments of unexpected insight.
With gentle satire and emotional depth, Duncan Wallace weaves a story that explores freedom, identity, and the quiet chaos of early adulthood. A thought-provoking, character-driven novel for readers who appreciate introspective fiction with a wandering soul.
"Wry, minimalist, and quietly haunting, Duncan Wallace’s debut is a raw portrait of disconnection, freedom, and the strange, aching beauty of being young, broke, and totally unprepared."
